Chapter 1 Hell
"Hey"

"Alive! Finally alive!"

...

In a daze, Xie Shen heard cheers in his ears, so he suddenly opened his eyes.

He looked around and found himself in a dark room.

There was another skinny man in the room, who had a crazy expression on his face and was staring at Xie Shen like a madman.

What's the situation?
Am I not already dead?

Xie Shen remembered it very clearly: after he traveled from Earth to the world of cultivation, he practiced very hard all the way, walking on thin ice, until he reached the great perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage.

Then, when trying to break through the bottleneck, he unfortunately attracted a heavenly calamity and died.

There was no trace of the body left when he died, but the tragic scene is still vivid in our minds.

But now, why did he come back to life inexplicably?

...

"you're awake"

in the room.

Seeing Xie Shen wake up, the skinny man put away the madness on his face.

He forced a smile and said in a kind manner, "Brother, I was the one who resurrected you. Do you still remember your name?"

"I don't remember. I just have a terrible headache right now." Out of caution, Xie Shen did not rush to respond directly to the other party. He just asked, "What is this place? You just said that you resurrected me. Does that mean I was dead before?"

"Don't you know how you died?" The skinny man looked thoughtful and asked, "Then do you know where you lived before and who you knew?"

This person has a problem.
Seeing that the skinny man just kept asking him questions and was unwilling to reveal any information, Xie Shen suddenly became alert.

He did not respond to the other party's question, but secretly mobilized the spiritual power in his body, wanting to subdue the other party by force with his Nascent Soul stage cultivation.

but.
At the moment of trying to circulate the spiritual energy in his body, Xie Shen discovered that after his resurrection from the dead, his cultivation in the late Nascent Soul stage had also disappeared.

He is now no different from an ordinary person.

"Hey! Why aren't you talking?" Seeing Xie Shen was silent, the skinny man spoke again: "I want to ask you: What's your name? Where do you live? Tell me so I can verify your identity and register for you."

"Register?" Xie Shen was stunned when he heard that.

But the skinny man said, "Well, all the resurrected people must register, and then the space station will arrange a job for you, as well as a place to live, food and water."

Space station?

Xie Shen captured two useful pieces of information from the other party's words.

First: He is currently suspected to be in a place called a "space station". Most of the places that can be called "space stations" are extreme environments that are not suitable for human survival, such as the deep sea, outer space, and the polar regions.

Second: The space station is suspected to be managed in a militarized manner, which means that the humans in it are very likely to have encountered some kind of disaster.

of course.

The above inferences must be based on the premise that the other party is not lying.

After coming up with a plan in mind, Xie Shen smiled and said with a hint of apology in his tone: "I'm so sorry, my head really hurts. Can you let me rest for a while and give me some water to drink? I'll cooperate with you when I recover, okay?"

"you"

Seeing that Xie Shen was still unwilling to reveal any information about himself, the skinny man changed his previous kind attitude.

He became increasingly flustered and irritable, and finally couldn't help but growl at Xie Shen: "Can't you just cooperate? Why don't you cooperate?"

The skinny man seemed to be afraid of something: while he was roaring in a low voice, his eyes kept looking around the room.

Something is wrong.
Xie Shen realized that something was wrong and subconsciously took two steps back.

as predicted.

The next second, several mechanical arms stretched out from the ceiling of the room and pressed the skinny man to the ground.

"I was wrong, I was wrong! Don't shock me!"

After being pinned to the ground by the mechanical arm, the skinny man immediately began to tremble and convulse all over, and no amount of begging for mercy could help.

It was obvious that he was suffering from electric shocks.

In order to avoid being implicated, Xie Shen quickly huddled in a corner of the room, paying close attention to everything around him.

As the smell of burning spread out, the skinny man was no longer in human form.

It looks like he is dead.

After this person died, an electronic synthesized voice sounded from the room:
[The resurrected person, Dunbin, was born on August 2035, 8 at 1:9 am. He was born in Southeast Asia and is of Chinese descent.]

The resurrected?
What do you mean?
The sudden sound startled Xie Shen so much that he trembled all over.

He looked around hurriedly, and finally fixed his eyes on the ground with strange geometric patterns painted on it.

As Xie Shen watched, the surface of the strange geometric pattern began to emit a faint light.

After a few seconds, a human figure appeared above the geometric pattern and gradually turned from virtual to real.

This person is skinny.

Judging from his appearance, it was Deng Bin who had just been electrocuted to death by the mechanical arm.

Such an incredible scene made Xie Shen feel inexplicably shocked:

这 是
Some kind of magic that can resurrect a person out of thin air without any cost?

So, I was resurrected by this spell?

After witnessing the entire process of Deng Bin's resurrection, Xie Shen soon understood something - if he guessed correctly, there were roughly two conditions for the resurrection technique:
First, you need to draw that weird geometric pattern on the ground.

Second, it is necessary to accurately state the detailed information of the person being resurrected.

Perhaps it was because of this that Deng Bin kept asking for Xie Shen's identity information.

As for why Dunbin was electrocuted to death by the robotic arm
in the room.

Xie Shen asked Deng Bin, who had just resurrected from the dead, "You were shocked just now because you failed to find out my identity, right?"

"Um"

This was obviously not the first time that Dunbin had been electrocuted to death by a robotic arm.

After being resurrected, he did not show any fear. Instead, he grinned and said, "According to the rules, if I fail to find out your identity, I will be electrocuted to death by the mechanical hand in the tower."

Then he changed the subject and said, "And then, it will be your turn."

"My turn?" Xie Shen frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Dunbin didn't respond, but just looked up.

Following his gaze, the mechanical arms stretched out from the ceiling of the room again and easily imprisoned Xie Shen on the wall.

——Although Xie Shen was the reincarnation of a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, he had long lost his previous life's cultivation after his resurrection from the dead. Even if he had many tricks, he could not use them at this moment.

“Brother, don’t blame me.” Seeing that Xie Shen had been restrained, Deng Bin began to slowly approach him: “Everyone in the tower got here this way.”

"I'll torture you later, so you don't have to hold on."

"I asked you a question, and you should tell me everything you need to tell me."

"Whether it's your parents, relatives, friends, or your own experience, just tell us what you need to say."

"Do you understand?"

After hearing this, Xie Shen finally understood Deng Bin's purpose.

He suddenly realized, "I see. So you want to torture me to find out the names of my relatives and friends, and then resurrect them to this place?"

"Ah."

Deng Bin seemed to be looking forward to seeing Xie Shen showing a desperate expression.

He patiently explained: "The purpose of this place is to revive and torture people. Things like electric shock and burning are all part of the daily routine. Then they will revive you after you die, and then torture you again. It never stops."

this.
Let alone experiencing it all personally.

Xie Shen felt a chill in his heart just by listening to it.

So what exactly is this place?
Hell?
Or is it a horrific laboratory built by some cruel human forces?

We have to find a way to escape.
